Re: VFP 9 ODBC Not Installing on Win2003 SP1

Tech-Archive recommends: Fix windows errors by optimizing your registry

Hi Cindy,

You are correct, it is a OleDB. Confusion for me sets in from reading the
driver name it installs (or is supposed to in this case: vfpodbc.dll).
Either way, we're all on the same page - the one I downloaded and attempted
install is the latest VFP9 drivers. The Win2003 ODBC Manager squeals when I
tell it to use that 1.x driver, so I'm between a rock and a hard place.

Can someone from MS comment on this or am I gonna have to call PSS on this
one?

Thanks,
Mark
